NUISANCE: a neutrino cross-section generator tuning and comparison framework
read the original abstract
NUISANCE is an open source C++ framework which facilitates detailed studies of neutrino interaction cross-section models implemented in Monte Carlo neutrino event generators. It provides a host of automated methods to perform comparisons of multiple generators to published cross-section measurements and each other. External reweighting libraries are used to allow the end-user to evaluate the impact of model parameters variations in the generators with data, or to tune the generator predictions to arbitrary dataset combinations. The design is modular and focusses on ease-of-use to allow new datasets and more generators to be added without requiring detailed understanding of the entire NUISANCE package. We discuss the motivation for the NUISANCE framework and suggested usage cases, alongside a description of its core structure.

Two-body current and axial form factor effects in charged-current quasielastic neutrino-nucleus scattering within the NEUT event generator
Adding two-body currents and updated axial form factors to a relativistic spectral function model increases predicted cross sections for neutrino-carbon scattering, with the LQCD+MINERvA fit overestimating data while ...
